It may be convenient for your staff to have a link to the order page in your New Order Notification email and in you New Order Notification (mobile) SMS.

Here's how you can add such link.

Click on 'New Order Notification' to open the New Order Notification template in the online code editor.

STEP 3

At the bottom of the template, add this:

	 You can review this order details in your shop admin at {{ shop.url }}/admin/orders/{{ id }}. 

If you are using HTML, use that instead:

	 <a href="{{ shop.url }}/admin/orders/{{ id }}">View order</a>

The order ID is actually given by this:
